Good luck!!! At least you have plenty of time to prepare so you can "wow" them.
Thanks. I just dug a bit deeper and found a few more of their songs online. Since there's a chance I'll be playing those songs if I end up joining them, I decided to give them a listen. Honestly, the ones they had openly pointed me towards were better. The ones I found on my own weren't that great (mostly due to the lack of riffs in those)...
Of course, my top priority with this band would be to come out, get some on-stage experience, meet some musicians and take it from there. And as they say, beggars can't be choosers. I can either take an opportunity that presents itself and go along for the ride for a while, or I can keep searching and perhaps never find a band. So I think going along for the ride will be the preferable option. I can always keep coming up with my own riffs and songs next to playing their songs, even if the styles are vastly different. I still intend to get a solo-career going at some point. But for now, I'll take it slowly and prepare as much as possible before Christmas :) I've some pretty awesome opportunities waiting around for me :)
